If you're putting a Z1 into an OBD-0 car, expect TONS of wiring issues.

D15Z1 = SOHC VTEC-E from a VX

Re: (DaX)

Z1'a are a PITA.

DAX helped me figure out how to wire a 4 wire O2 into my Z1 harness so i can run uberdata. i still haven't had a chance to find a sensor, nor the 4 wire plug (engine side) but soon after that, i'll go full management for boost, blow the motor on the dyno and slap in a JDM D15B.

the USDM VX 1.5 is useless, but damn, its fun.
